Chris Sligh Empty Me Lyrics

Empty Me Lyrics

I've had just enough of the spotlight when it burns bright

To see how it gets in the blood

And I've tasted my share of the sweet life and the wild ride

And found a little is not quite enough



I know how I can stray

And how fast my heart could change



Empty me of the selfishness inside

Every vain ambition and the poison of my pride

And any foolish thing my heart holds to

Lord empty me of me so I can be filled with You



I've seen just enough of the quick buys of the best lies

To know how prodigals can be drawn away

I know how I can stray

And how fast my heart could change



Empty me of the selfishness inside

Every vain ambition and the poison of my pride

And any foolish thing my heart holds to

Lord empty me of me so I can be filled with You



'Cause everything is a lesser thing

Compared to You, compared to You

'Cause everything is a lesser thing

Compared to You so why surrender all?



Empty me of the selfishness inside

Every vain ambition and the poison of my pride



Empty me of the selfishness inside

Every vain ambition and the poison of my pride

And any foolish thing my heart holds to

Lord empty me of me so I can be

Lord empty me of me so I can be filled with You

Oh, filled with You, empty me
